Lol cured thanks for the looks cool.

More or less every single time I went to put in STIX, it was taken (not case sensitive). So I discovered that "!" was an adequate replacement, and so it stuck.

[Hitman]

I started using Hitman as a game handle way back in the Doom days. I don't exactly remember why I picked it. I liked it so I kept using it.

and by your name I thought it was because you were funny, but I too was wrong.

Check the explanation of my name above and you'll see that it's not because I'm funny.

Mine was suggested by Hotmail when I signed up for my first email account a little over a decade ago. I've never named a car, truck, computer, or any other inanimate object, and all of my dogs have had unimaginative names, so it is pretty fitting.

I also use Knutsaac occasionally, which was the name of my Paladin when I played D and D back when. It was fun watching DMs try to say the name with a straight face. It usually is what I use for online gaming. Fun seeing how many people catch on.

My avatar is the late great jazz Hammond B-3 player, Jimmy Smith.

[onebxr]

1 boxer came about on Napster chat. I was trying to figure out a name to use, and at the time I only had one dog that was a boxer. Hence the 1boxer. I use several variations of the name for different things. So you may see it as onebxr, 1BoXeR, 1bxr, or just simply -1. I now have 2 boxer dogs and 2boxer just doesnt work for me, so screw the other dog, its the wifes dog anyway! I am just kidding. My dogs are my kids, and there are only 2 people I like on this earth more than those dogs. And if you are reading this you are not one of them.

[gvblake22]

Another Hotmail naming victim here too!
The GV stands for Grand Valley, as in Grand Valley State University where I went to school. The Blake is my first name, and the 22 could be considered my favorite number (if I had to pick such a thing).

I tried and tried lots of different names to get my first e-mail account (Hotmail). Originally I tried just GVBlake, but it was taken so I just added 22 to the end and it voila! My gaming nickname is usually mmm, yep.

My original avatar (the fan) is a scanned image (made by myself) of the fan included on the stock heatsink of my first processor, an AMD Athlon XP 2500 Barton. Then I replaced the AMD logo with the HL for obvious reasons. My current avatar is the first time I've ever used something other than the AMD fan for an extended period of time and I chose the image of a Raptor X in honor (and anticipation) of my current case mod project.
